ch.02. Cottage

Agriche

You probably have heard of that name before and if you haven't then you aren't a big fan of webnovels.

My name is Kayley Agriche the youngest daughter of Lant Agriche, You could say I'm rather unfortunate to end up in this body,

Afterlives are supposed to be enjoyable so why am I stuck here?

Well, truck-kun happened and, bam!

I came here,

****

"This girl has been executed, she's the daughter of Helene"

The older out of the four stated, lighting a cigarette not bothered by the fact that he had killed his own daughter.

The other male with black hair and red eyes who you could tell had a remarkable resemblance to the older male, stared at the picture

"Yes I know her"

The room was surprised, this rather handsome-looking male never really showed interest in knowing the people he lived with.

But he somehow knew the girl who showed no potential over the last years?

The blonde-haired female was taken aback by the male's statement as she who always knew of her surroundings had never noticed the girl before.

"She invited me to have tea with her one day when I was passing by the garden"

"And you joined?" blustered the younger amongst the four,

"Was there a reason to reject her offer? Jeremy"

The two locked eyes glaring at each other, even a stranger would realize that these two siblings had no good relationship between them.

"But father what intrigues me is, the fact that the knights you had sent to dispose of her never returned"

It had been three days indeed

"..." Lant took time to process, 

maybe they fled after completing their job?

But if they did so there is no other fate left for them than death so they would prove to be quite dumb.

"Dion go to the west and investigate" Lant pricked his cigarette on the table lighting it off and dismissing the rest.

_WAY TO PROTECT THE FEMALE LEAD_

"Zera! Come join me!" The blonde-haired female called out for a certain servant, 

"Yes my lady" the servant hurriedly went to her master pouring tea in her cup and going back in the cottage to prepare more biscuits for the little lady

It's a nice weather today! The garden looks beautiful and the flowers are glowing, being out feels good for once, I never liked the constant smell of blood in that castle. it was just so suffocating.

She took a sip of her tea enjoying the scenery in front of her.

I'm never going back there, for the rest of my life, I'll stay here with Zera.

looking across the table, a white envelope on its' full display. 

curiosity killed the cat they said

reaching over the letter i froze when I was engulfed in a big shadow, a hand which wasn't mine laying on the table, a man was behind me. murder?

No. I knew this aura too well, the feeling is the same as that place I left.

"You look like you're having fun, sister"

Dion 

"..."

"I found this and thought I should give it back to you"

from the bottom of his pocket, he pulled out a knife, decorated with a golden handle and the Agriche family's Crest

Damn it! I knew I was forgetting something, the knife I had lost and never took care to search for. I was too reckless thinking Saggi took care of everything.

she gulped

"Won't you invite me to a cup of tea?" he pulled his face close to her ear, his smooth lips almost touching her earlobe as she shivered,

"A-Are you going to send me b-back?" her eyes were fixated on the image of the girl reflected by the tea in her cup,

"Were you willing to stay here, or perhaps that maid was a bad influence on you? Shall I punish her"

Bastard

I know Zera is seeing everything from the window but she can't get out, Dion probably knows she's in there ignoring the fact he hasn't seen her yet,

"pl-please don't" I had to act weak, I had to,

But he wasn't human, he could hear you breathe from a kilometer away,

"very well, then let's take our leave"

I don't know why he's carrying me when I can walk, or why we rode in the same carriage when he brought two with him. I only know where I was going and it's what scared me most,

the ride was quiet and uncomfortable, Kayley wanted to get out as soon as possible, but if the destination wasn't that house, 

She could've wished for the ride to be a bit longer.
